Build: To reproduce, open any of the following in Navigator: * the Back button menu * the Forward button menu * the address field auto-complete menu * the Bookmarks menu. What you see: * The menu items use the large system font (e.g. Charcoal 12). What you should see: * The menus use the same font as their parent widget.

To clarify, by `the Bookmarks menu' I am referring to the Bookmarks menu in the Personal Toolbar, when it is turned on in the prefs.

This problem now occurs with the Modern theme as well.

Someone seems to have fixed this in recent builds, and its a disaster! While it may be acceptable for the Back/Forward menus etc, its hopeless for things like the personal toolbar and the bookmarks button/menu on the personal toolbar. Not only do these previously normal looking menus now look wrong - but the font being used doesn't have the command (clover-leaf), shift key, control key or option key glyphs. Therefore when bug 70048 is checked in, the keyboard shortcuts in the bookmarks menu appear as little missing character boxes [] rather than the correct symbols. Ironically, this works right in modern!

Filed bug 91843 on the recent regresions.

This is fixed on Classic, and is now only a problem on Modern. In Modern, context menus have the appropriate (large) font, but Back and Forward menus and Personal Toolbar menus do not use the appropriate (small) font.

interesting. i think this is still the case on mac os 9.1 --eg, i get large Charcoal in my context menus [using 2001.10.01.03-branch comm]. however, when i bring up context menus on mac os 10.0.4 [2001.10.01.04-branch comm], the font is the same --but in the context menu font is not bold [like the main menu font], and i *think* even a bit smaller than the main menu font. is what i'm seeing *this* bug, a different issue, or expected behavior?

Hrm, I just tried this with the Classic skin in 2001100108 and I definately got a small font - probably Geneva, which doesn't support the keyboard accelerator glyphs which mpt thinks should be removed. Sairuh - did you use Modern or Classic?

fwiw see my bug on bad font usage in modern skin, bug 102224.

lordpixel: my 2001-10-01 19:17 comments were based on using the modern theme. in addition, when i do use classic, i see what you see: the context menu font is small and Geneva.

Since bug 91843 was fixed, this is now a problem on both Classic and Modern.

reassigning some of my mac classic bugs so they dont fall off into space...
